That's probably because you don't have an Email client or account associated with your device yet. NoLED searches for an Email app/account to compose that report and send it out (after getting your permission).

1) Lock up? what happens if you press the back button/home button to get back to your lock screen as this is the way you're supposed to exit NoLED's screen.

2) For vibrate to work, make sure your phone is set to vibrate. You can do that by going to the Sound options in Android settings. If you have either silent or Vibrate turned off, NoLED will obey these and will suppress vibration.

I'm using the KK5 rom. Stock. I can't duplicate the issue here :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] KennyLegend:
I'm using Trickys deodexed kk5. Its based on stock rom.

Maybe it could be siyah kernel. I might try reflash cf root and see.

Using the latest version seems to be flawless for me. As long as I use the back button to dismiss notifications. The home button no longer gets pressed in my pocket. This is such a great app and if I had paypal, I'd donate.

@ madmack, Maybe you can make a donate type version in the market? I'd give you a reasonable amount for this application.

amazing app (donation is on the way) - any chance to get the icons only on the top left corner (without only jumping on the whole screen (it will be helpfull if the device is in a cover)
[Android Apps and Games] KennyLegend:
Ok... I've found the problem. There is an incompatibility with noled and jkays themes.. in particular the lockscreens.

When I select jkays glass lockscreen or aosp lockscreen, the blinking feature doesn't work properly.

When no lockscreen is selected, blinking feature works as it should but back button doesn't work dismiss notifications.

Just thought I'd share this.

Hi,good job! I am using HUAWEI U8500,I cannot use "double tap" to dismiss notifications. Can you fix it?
[Android Apps and Games] Charmed :):
Sorry for not reading the faq
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
I'm staying away from implementing this because it'll strain these pixels with the icons floating in that area. Icons use more pixels, and so that's why I feel more comfortable knowing that they have a bigger area (and pixels) to switch on/off.

wow, thanks. It looks like JKay skipped some Android API calls when he implemented his lock screens: namely relocking the KeyGuard.

I haven't been able to pinpoint the cause yet. Still looking around @_@. My implementation surely works on the SGS2 (my device) and on the Android emulator which runs a Stock Android AOSP version.

Seriously man? c'mon.. read the first line of the OP that I outlined in red.
[Android Apps and Games] :
Wonder if there's a way to make the notifications "glow"? Like fade in and out. Would be cool. Maybe fade from left to right of the icon too?

Deebo took your bike too?
[Android Apps and Games] ChodTheWacko:
Yes. NoLED freezes (I can tell because the blinking notification light freezes).

Then I basically have to pull the battery or hard reboot (hold the power button for 10 seconds). Nothing else works.

if I hit the home button, all is well - so I'm still using it.

But the whole locking up thing is really bad, and it was driving me crazy till I figured out what was causing it.

Well, let me be a bit more specific. Vibrate is on.

I get the initial notify/vibration. What is not working is the 'vibration interval' and/or 'audio reminder' which is supposed to happen every X seconds as specified by the option.

Not to worry -- switching pixels on and off does not "strain" them -- technology that bad has not been used for many years.

NoLED

NoLed's biggest fan here. Haven't followed the thread since September but just got caught up. This may have been asked long ago and I am reluctant to try adding to an already dizzying array of options... But is there any way to have custom notification time out settings. Maybe enabling custom time out would automatically disable the common time out for all notifications so that I can set a time out of say five minutes for Gmail, ten minutes for Yahoo and fifteen for missed calls?:confused:

EDIT: Oh, and I didn't realize there was a double tap to dismiss feature even though I read every changelog when an update appears in the Market. Mine doesn't seem to be working, but it could be user error. That dizzying array of features thing, lol. I'll check tomorrow.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
This will require more intensive CPU/GPU work. I'm keeping NoLED as simple as I can in terms of the amount of calculation per screen refresh.

I don't know man. If you get Freezes, you should receive an Android ANR dialog that asks you to terminate the app. That's how Android handles "frozen" apps or processes. Once you receive that, send a report and I'll have a look at it. But without any kind of log, it's impossible for me to help.

Not true. I've seen it happen. example:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=18260108&postcount=12

I think the settings menu is "nerdy" enough. :rolleyes: Some people are already struggling with the names of options, or to find where things are. A lot just simply don't realize how capable the app is. You won't believe how often I receive emails asking "plz support whatsapp".

Unless I'm reworking the entire settings menu and introducing some kind of tutorial in the beginning, I think I won't add any more cumbersome settings to the already strained settings menu.

Double tap to dismiss

At first I couldn't get the double tap to dismiss to work either but I figured out how to get it to work on my phone. I have only that checked on dismiss buttons settings. When NoLed turns on, I've figured out that I have to press the back soft key first then double tap the screen and it works fine. (note: I do NOT have back key selected in the dismiss buttons settings) :)
[Android Apps and Games] slreno:
hmmmmm, why not just use the back button to dismiss since your pushing it anyway, of course unless you just like to dbl tap the screen :)

seemslike a extra step to have to dbl tap when you are pressing the back key to be able to dbl tap?
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
Perfect. That's for your feedback.

That's why it doesn't work for some guys. The home key blocker actually is a hacked up version that adds an invisible system dialog which is the only way that I'm aware of to disable that key. If you have the home key enabled, the double tapping should work without pressing the back key due to the fact that this "invisible system dialog" is no longer there.

I'll have to automate this somehow. :eek:
[Android Apps and Games] supermanmos:

Hello,

Is it possible to define text filter by part of the message string?

And another question: I can't get notifications from IM+ messenger, that are just doesn't appear... Any idea why?
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
The thread I actually linked to is about samsung galaxy s2 (read: SAMOLED+).

Whatever the truth may be, I'm not going to "trap" the icons to a corner as I'm not comfortable doing it.

Yes, that is currently the case. The filter is also case insensitive.

Make sure you know which app is actually displaying IM+'s notifications on the status bar. The best way is through the Advance[d] submenu. Once you know the app name, check that under Monitored Apps.
[Android Apps and Games] Holmes108:
They are supposedly invulnerable to true burn in, but are still susceptible to image persistence, like newer plasmas (plasmas do suffer worse though). It's splitting hairs really. The latter is generally not permanent, but not the easiest thing to get rid of on a phone.

I'm not saying NoLED would be a major risk for it, but I'm just saying the fact that people have had this issue on their phones is well documented. So I understand why Madmack doesn't even want to risk being accused of contributing to it.
[Android Apps and Games] RaymondPJR:
NoLED

I agree 100%. I did say, "...I am reluctant to try adding to an already dizzying array of options...". And I myself have practically begged for a video tutorial. I don't understand all of the settings so I don't use them. Anyway, I understand. It would be nice though to set the time out of a notification when you are selecting said notification. If the option opens up automatically what could be easier than that?:)

Still can't get double tap to work, but I haven't had time to experiment, lol.:cool:

I'll bet thats my answer, thanks!

NoLED and Go Locker

Hi there,

I was using NoLed and Widgetlokcer (on my SGS2) for a while which worked fine.

No I was going for GoLocker as I like this even more and recognized that this doesn´t work with the NoLed. Am I doing something wrong or is it currently not possible ? When can we expect to get this working also ?

Regards

Elkomie
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
question to everybody: are you getting the wrong contact photo in the latest market version for missed calls/sms? it shouldn't happen and yet I see a comment in the market saying that it does mix up still.

GoLocker is not supported and there are no plans to introduce any kind of support.

Not happening for me. Tap to dismiss works fine. Must have missed that it works only with home button.:)
[Android Apps and Games] mickey4mice:
Awesome app, but 2 things not working quite right.

1. In Gmail, no led for new email if filtered to skip inbox. Can you make it to work with all labels set to auto sync?

2. No notification for SMS through Google Voice?
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
1. not possible. however, you can download gmail notifier from the market, set it to display a notification in the status bar for your labels, and then have NoLED "monitor" that app.

2. It works with me? check it in Monitored Apps and it should work.

REQ: Charging percentage enhancement

NoLED: 4.8

Device: Nexus S

The Nexus S does a fast charge to about 90%, then goes into slow charge, and finally cuts off charging without reaching 100% (e.g., 97%). It makes sense, because that charging strategy will prolong the life of the battery. But it results in confusion with NoLED between not charging at all and fully charged; i.e., if there's no charge percentage shown, I can't tell if it's fully charged or if the charger isn't working.

If possible, I'd like NoLED to show charge percentage when fully charged and on the charger (and not 100%) so I know it's at least on a working charger. I've tried the "Only on 100%" option, but that doesn't seem to help. Is what I want possible to do?

Another nice possibility would be to change the color of the charging percentage from color 1 (e.g., white) to color 2 (e.g., green) when fully charged/charging stops.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] timn2bama:
when I upgraded to 4.8 yesterday I wanted to disable my icons so I turned the phone face down strange thing is that after 2 hours phone back got real hot and battery drained to like 15% from 80%. And today at work it got hot in my pocket so I was thinking what I changed on phone and only thing changed was this upgrade.So I turn noled off by the widget and battery stopped draining and phone cooled down. So I changed backed down to the previous version and everything back to normal. Im runnning a ATT SGS II never had this until now and yes I rebooted phone few times. Wondering if anyone else had this problem in this update? thanks for great app been using it from the very first dot! lol
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
In the latest version, only on 100% doesn't trigger when the percentage reaches that level. It relies on an API that notifies the application when the phone is "fully charged". So I guess if you have the 100% checked and your phone never reaches that level but the Android framework works correctly, then you should see a 97% (or whatever the full charge percentage is on your device) when the device is fully charged. This should only appear when the phone is fully charged and the regular battery increments won't work.

I like the idea of having a different color. I'll see what I can do about it given that it will most likely need a new entry in the Colors submenu so users can have the option to change it. Thanks for the suggestion.

interesting. do you have the proximity sensor option checked under battery saving features? Can you please wave your hand in front of the proximity sensor (most likely located on the top left corner of the screen if it's anything similar to the international sgs2) and see if the screen turns off? I haven't really changed anything in regards to that wakelock, but the app might be spawning some new threads or something that is heating up the device. :eek:

NoLED On with charge % during Sleep period

From further testing I think my issue may have more to do with Sleep settings than with full battery charge. What I expected was that Sleep settings would define a period of time when NoLED would always be off. Instead, the settings appear to just be triggers.

For example, configure NoLED to display charging percentage, with an Off time of current clock time less an hour and an On time of current clock time plus an hour, putting NoLED in the Off period. Put the handset on a charger, and then turn off the display. NoLED will activate (turn On) and show the charging percentage, whereas my expected behavior is that NoLED would be Off, not On.

Would it not make more sense to change the logic so NoLED would not activate (turn On) during the Sleep period?

With regard to NoLED not showing the charging percentage, this happens shortly after the end of the Sleep period. I think this may be a case of NoLED still being in Sleep mode, will investigate further.

UPDATE: I was right -- NoLED fails to trigger charging display On at the end of Sleep period. To reproduce: Set a short Sleep interval from current time plus 2 minutes Off to current time plus 3 minutes On. Put the handset on a charger and turn the screen off. NoLED then displays the charging %. Wait for the Off time, and NoLED does turn Off. Wait for the On time, and NoLED does not turn On. This would seem to be a clear BUG.

When something like this happens, see what's using the battery by opening Settings > About phone > Battery use.

Hi, I really like this app, but I've got a problem now: I was on CM7 and everything was okay, now on MIUI mintberry I can't get to see the led notification for the texts: the screen's just black and the buttons light like the app wasn't installed at all. I tried to change the text filter in "monitored apps" checking the notifications log (the apps name's "messaging") but it won't work. I tried using "new SMS/MMS" like it used to work with on CM7, but nothing again. I get gmail and whatsapp notifications though

Any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] kalhimeo:
Hi madmack,

Thank you very much for this useful app, I recently switched to the S2 and was missing the LED of my HD2 :)

I have a small suggestion, sorry if it has been asked before: is it possible to have an option to disable the effect of the power button when NoLED is showing (or makes NoLED check that its notification screen is turned on every 10 seconds or so, when there are active notifications of course)

At the moment if we have notifications and press the power button inadvertently (ie. in the pocket), NoLED won't show up anymore.

It would also be nice if it was possible to dismiss NoLED notifications via a long press (home, back or whatever).

Thanks !
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
Thanks for the font sites. I'll check them out and see whether I can bundle them in a commercial, albeit free product.

For the sleep periods, you're right. NoLED is programmed to only trigger. Anything else would consume more cpu cycles or worse (wakelocks) to override whatever the user sets manually and would break other features that I've implemented such as the fact that NoLED would not turn on if the user switched the program off manually.

I'll try to replicate the charging problem and see what I get. I know that I did program NoLED to check the charging status upon starting so it should take care of it. I'll let you know if I could replicate it.

set the android pattern unlock and see if this helps. it seems MIUI is not locking the device correctly after receiving a text.

I'd rather not override something like that specially that we have some options that intentionally switch the screen off to conserve battery. It's a lot of state checking and I'm staying away from that.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:

NoLED 4.8 won't display full charge on Nexus S

I was right the first time: There seems to be no way on my Nexus S to get NoLED to display full charge on charger -- it will only display charge percentage when not fully charged. Left it on charger overnight. Lock screen displayed "Charged". But while NoLED did display notifications (e.g., Messaging), it did not display charge percentage (whether "Only on 100%" was checked or not). Since the lock screen displays "Charged", I'm assuming this status is available to NoLED. A fix for this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

John

[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
I don't know why it doesn't work on your build :confused: had "only on 100%" working on my gingerbread sgs2 just this morning when i was calibrating the battery.

one more thing, does your phone popup a special message when your device is fully charged? maybe that's overriding NoLED's screen somehow.
[Android Apps and Games] JNavas2:
Re: NoLED 4.8 won't display full charge on Nexus S

I've had this problem both on Gingerbread and now on Ice Cream Sandwich. I've never seen any popup when the device becomes fully charged, but can't tell of course if it happened during the night. I'm guessing there must be some difference between the Nexus S and the SGS2, and since the Nexus S is the reference platform, it would seem to be an SGS2 issue. If you like, I would be happy to capture a System Log tomorrow morning, and if you want to make a debug build, I would be happy to test it for you.

UPDATE: Put the Nexus S on the charger, and waited until it reached full charge again ("Charged" on the lock screen), and now NoLED is displaying 97%. So the problem this morning must have been related to the Sleep (00:00 off to 06:00 on) issue I've documented previously. Sorry for the confusion. So please focus on the Sleep issue, and how great it would be to have some indication of full charge (e.g., different % color, check mark).

You need to disable "turn screen on" and "unlock screen" under notification settings of GoSms .

Works great here on my S2.

I did have issues with this recently but i narrowed it down to the lockscreens in jkays themes. Jkay has since fixed the issue.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:
can you tell me whether you have the dismiss with power button enabled?

that option exists in Miscellaneous > dismiss buttons.

make sure you also have the stock android lock screen enabled as this is confirmed to break blink if you don't. To be on the safe side, you can enable Android Pattern Unlock and check the Blink feature again just to rule this one out.

I have had a purple notification/light that nevers goes off/away

Hello,

Sorry to annoy you but I have a problem with NoLed.

I use it on my Nexus S (i9023 Super LCD, Android 2.3).

It worked fine for many months even if I had widget locker activated too.

But for the past 3 weeks I have had a purple notification/light that nevers goes off/away. I had it under Android 2.3 "Gingerbread" and I still have it under Android 4.0 "Ice Cream Sandwich".

I have of course no notification in the status bar.

I checked pretty all apps (in AirDroid for example) and none of them has a new message.

Don't know if my descriptions are helpful.

I really like NoLed so I don't want to disable it.

Thanks if you have an idea of the reasons.

Or is there a way to check what app is alerting me ?

P.S.:

Sorry for my poor English, I'm French.
[Android Apps and Games] madmack:

NoLED

I downloaded NoLed to a friends Nexus S today. He did himself twice in the past but deleted it because he couldn't get it to work. NoLed said I needed to enable accessibility in settings and I chose 'yes'. That took me to settings where I put a check next to accessibility. But there was no checkbox for NoLed below it like on my phone, so it kept asking over and over. A reboot didn't change anything. What am I missing.:confused:

EDIT: Well it doesn't matter, he changed his mind again. There must be a reason I didn't see NoLed below the checkbox in 'Accessibility' so I'll put this one down to user error.
